Exciting things in the horizon

My financial woes will soon be over, I can already see the light at the end of the dark tunnel, and another tunnel is opening its way for us, God's tunnel of blessings.

God has been good to me. Yes, I complained, and yes, I questioned Him, I asked why He allowed me to go through what I went through. I am earning well and yet I don't get to enjoy my earnings. Almost all my earnings go to settling our bills and other payables. It has been going on for years now... but finally, hopefully, this will be over very soon.

We were hard up in 2008 and our financial woes compounded when my son Rae got sick in 2010. I almost lost him to Dengue. My world collapsed. I was so exhausted - physically, emotionally, financially. My son stayed at  San Pedro Hospital's ICU for 3 weeks, in the hospital ward for 2 weeks, and has been in and out of the hospital after his initial discharged due to kidney complications caused by Dengue. I cried, I wailed, I complained, I was angry - but at the end of the day, I knelt down and I prayed for God's healing and mercy. He delivered His promise and gave me back my son. But the incident put our family in a messy financial situation. It was very hard for me but the experience taught me a lot of things and made me stronger.

Our house is located in a very progressive location and our lot area is way bigger compared to other lots in our subdivision, but the house and lot was on mortgage, we did not  have complete authority over it. We put it up for sale in 2010 to pay our hospital bills. We offered it cheap but no one was interested. So we had to resort to left and right borrowings to settle our hospital and residential bills.

Our humble home, an 80 sq.m. house on a 372 sq.m. lot. 

That was almost two years ago. Good news is, recently, with patience and resourcefulness, we were able to fully pay the house, so it's finally and completely ours now! I am so grateful no one took an interest in our house, that we held on to it. This house is the only home that my children know and I know it will break their heart if we sell it. Good things truly come to those who pray, believe and wait. I can't wait however to give to my children what they truly deserve. They have been fantastic, truly understanding of our situation. I look forward to traveling with my children, to shopping with them, go pampering them. They have been deprived for many years now.

Exciting things are indeed in the horizon.
